For my WordPress site development, should I use any old graphic designer, or should they be WordPress savvy?
A frequently-asked query:
I am quoting graphic design and customization of my WordPress site. I just got the hosting up and running and I do not like the free skins.
Some designers say anybody can design a WordPress site, and other say it’s best to use someone who is very familiar with the CMS (content management system). One guy even said he was WordPress certified; not sure if that is even really a thing.
What do you think?

I think a WordPress-familiar developer would definitely be the best, but it is a fairly intuitive system to work with.
I’d say if you have no luck finding a reasonably-priced WordPress designer, you’re still pretty safe to go with someone who hasn’t worked with it before. If they’re actually experienced they’ll pick it up no problem.
There are also many free WordPress themes available online, so you don’t necessarily have to pay for that piece – just the labour.
If you are designing around article management, list building and/or memberships, you may want to look into a PHP script like EZ Content Manager. Simple to install and use. There are a few vids on the site on how it works..just need to turn it up a bit. =)
Hope this helps
